Hasta la vista.

Long entry time, because I have so much to talk about:
I'm so glad I have you, because you again made me see how stupid and emotionally affected I can get about things. I was this close to disappointing myself and a lot of other people in the process. But I think, I really think, that Velda is back. For the past two days I've been a living effigy of myself; too much to think about, and thinking too much as a result. I wouldn't deny I have been selfish and cock about things recently.
And I want to be able to be proud of myself, and I know I have to be rational about this. Thank goodness for people like Qii, Cheryl, Doh, Marmar and Ah Soon. You guys are around to calm my raging mind and I know you guys just want the best for me. And I won't want to disappoint.
And so you know what? I think I've gotten over the worst of it. Suddenly just stepping out of the house I felt like myself again. Going to class and speaking up for gradualist theories in creole genesis make me feel like the linguistics student I always was. So, darling, I am so back. =)

Another thing. When you drop all that baggage and talk to someone without feeling like you need to be careful with your words, how much easier it becomes. I'm loving that right now.

Pidgins and Creoles officially ended today; and Clarissa is so awesome, she teared knowing that half the class' going to graduate after this. Totally enjoyed being a part of this class, and making the friends we have. I think in all everything about studying in UW has changed a lot of my opinions on things. I am so grateful to Deaf Studies and Linguistics of ASL, to Pidgins and Creoles, and my Geography modules.
And I'm really, really glad I came to Seattle.
Whatup with all that emo nonsense right, last week in Seattle alr. Tong, Sarah and Cheryl are all getting to me. =)
velda.
